Likewise, the biggest problem comes when they fly directly overhead!

I never had a problem with the mere 51 focus points of the D3 and I don't anticipate any with the D4 but I do have to get used to the idea that the native ISO is only 100. I was wondering why I couldn't get it to track a dog on Monday, nothing to do with AF, lots to do with a shutter speed of 1/15s

And then there's panning correctly to follow the critters!  

Ive started to test JKs assertions and today been 'chasing' seagulls over the garden. In addition to giving myself neck and upper arm muscle cramps I have discovered that while tracking, keeping the bird in frame with focus locked on....you have to remember to fire the shutter. :lol:
